To answer you try this, go to http://www.playtrek.com
This a a mailing list where members try to help other members find things at cost. In the case of very rare items at least you can find them at better deals then Ebay. I would not place the first set of figures as expensive other one or two of them and even then they do not bring truly "rare prices"
I hope that helps.
##EDIT##
I recieved a PM from a member nicely asking why I moved this here and I thougt that I would explain myself better. This is the reply that I sent back. I love that older member look out for the newer ones, that is so cool. Anyway here is my reply...
Well I thought about it but in the end...
The heading reads
"Too late to collect TOS toys?"
This says nothing about AA
Then the post says
"Do you all think it's too late/too expensive to collect the TOS cast?
meaning
Kirk (Both Green and Gold... I love that green uniform)
Spock
McCoy
Uhura
Scotty
Checkov
Sulu
KHAN"
This also does not say AA and since Playmates made all of these figures it is not an AA only thing. I'm guessing that he meant AA but he never says it.
Again it seems to me that the memebr also already knows that he wants them he's asking for inoput more along the lines of "are these old figures worth picking up or is it too late to find them" This is more about asking prices and where can I find them.
If the member that posted the first post feels that it really should go back in the AA section then we will edit the title a tad ( add AA too it ) and place it back.

No you didn't mess up the posting but I moved it to here..

It is more about collecting rather then just AA toys. The question was "is it to late/expensive to start collecting AA toys" If it was " what are the AA toys that are worth collecting" then it would be about the toys.

A left a link in the old Random Thoughts forum that will bring anyone that see it there to this section in this area.
BTW
Playmates made some very cool toys along the TOS lines and many times you can pick them on Ebay for dirt.

That's so true. I had reason to spend a good part of today going through my Playmates' Trek figures, and there are some really nice ones there.

Definately. In the last year I started collecting many action figures line from the 80's. And it really didn't cost that much with eBay's help....& the help of people on these forums & Playtrek.
Plus you go on eBay one day & someone is selling an AA Kirk for $40...the next day someone is selling him for $5. So you porobably shouldn't rush into anything as most regular items will come along eventually at a good price. I just paid about $5 for an MOC/MIB Playmates Esoqq on eBay.
And a few of those nice figures you looked at are coming to me!
I'm actually very excited about receiving the rest of Playmates DS9 T&T crew & the dress uniform figures.
You're a good man Pickard.
